One of the company's experimental artificial intelligence's has gained sentience and has led to the firing of an engineer.
In June, it was reported that Lemoine had been suspended from the company over his claims. Lemoine claimed that the AI had retained a lawyer. The Washington Post reported yesterday that Lemoine had left.
Lemoine pointed to a satirical Onion headline about a Dairy Queen employee getting fired for saying the machine was sentient in his most recent post.
It was brilliant! Lemoine made a joke on the social networking site. There were no notes.
The general consensus among experts is that the chatbot is almost certainly not sentient. Before most people in the US had color TV, a 1960s era computer program tricked some people into believing the simple code was still alive.
The program was not sentient according to the statement from the company. The transcripts Lemoine provided as proof of LaMBDA's consciousness were heavily edited.
It seems unlikely that the tech giant is covering up an artificial intelligence.
An engineer at a prominent corporation is convincing himself that the entities are conscious beings, which is a sign of things to come.
Authors are starting to use artificial intelligence to get rid of their novels quicker.
